(R.T. Finney, Interim Chief of Police)

Explanation: Rock Island County and the municipalities of Moline,EastMoline,RockIsland,Silvisand Milan, in conjunction with Scott County, Iowa, put out bids to vendors to build a P-25 radio system that would serve the entire Quad Cities area. In order to proceed with the project, an Intergovernmental Agreement was prepared to formalize the relationship of the Illinois agencies and establish a means of financing, paying, managing and completing construction of the project. The total cost of the project is $5,873,956.55. Moline’s share is $1,574,436.92, of which $775,031.00 is payable in 2019. City staff proposes funding the 2019 cost as follows: Unallocated Equipment Replacement Funds $49,465; Unbudgeted New Video Gaming Fee Revenue $163,400; General Fund Reserves $562,166. Additional documentation attached.

Staff Recommendation: Approval

Fiscal Impact: $775,031 payable in 2019; $468,980 in 2020; $330,426 in 2021, future maintenance costs.

2. A Resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute an Agreement with Marco Technologies, LLC for the purchase of cameras, and associated hardware and software to retain surveillance footage, in the amount of $61,453.64, with an annual maintenance fee of up to $4,976.84 for each FY 2019, 2020 and 2021, with funds coming from the general fund contingency. (Don Goff, Information Technology Manager)

Explanation: The current Police Department cameras were installed in 2006 and are at the end of their useful life, both inside and outside. New technology will allow the City to go from analog to digital cameras; therefore, it is not practical to retain the few cameras that are still working. The existing hardware and software must be upgraded in order to have the capability to retain the desired video surveillance footage. This purchase was not budgeted in 2019. Staff’s recommendation is to use general fund contingency. If contingency funds are used, the remaining balance after this purchase would be $155,519.52. Additional documentation attached.

Staff Recommendation: Approval

Fiscal Impact: $775,031 payable in 2019; $468,980 in 2020; $330,426 in 2021
